Rose's Rescue

A small group of volunteers..no paid employees. Our dogs are in area foster homes or they are housed at Rose's..in a heated pole building with a "bedroom" (toddler beds, a chair and a radio..so they can keep up on current events) with a dog door to a small fenced area to potty in through out the day and night. Then they get to play in a four acre fenced in area and swim in the pond every day too! We do not have a "shelter" per se and only under special circumstances are any of our animals "kenneled". They are very well socialized with people and other animals, which makes it much easier to know their temperaments. We do NOT take owner surrenders. But we will do courtesy posts for pets that are vetted and in need of homes. OUR MISSION STATEMENT Rose's Rescue is an all breed rescue for dogs and cats. We primarily concentrate on local pound rescues as we feel these are the animals in the most dire need of a second chance. We are committed to finding the best possible home for each, and every animal that comes into our rescue and we are available to help with any training or behavioral issues for the life of each animal. Rose's Rescue requires that any animal adopted through our organization be returned to us if for any reason the family is no longer able to care for them. Rose's Rescue is also committed to educating the public on the importance of spay and neuter, routine vaccinations, heartworm protection for dogs, and aids and leukemia testing for cats. According to the Humane Society of American over 4 million dogs, cats, kittens and puppies are killed each year. It is our goal to some day see no adoptable pets euthanized.Every two months, Rose’s Rescue chooses a few special candidates for a new class of dogs to be trained at the Trumbull Correctional Institution near Warren, Ohio. While enrolled in this program, each dog will be trained by selected inmates and overseen by professional dog trainer Bill Oliver (www.customcaninecompany.com) who generously volunteers his time with this laudable project. Upon completion of their training, cell dogs will have learned important socialization skills, have mastered basic obedience commands, and be fully housebroken. They will also be taught tricks to entertain their future families and friends, such as sitting pretty, playing dead, and give a high five. All dogs can be visited (by appointment and accompanied by a Rose’s Rescue representative) while at the prison. They can be adopted upon graduation, or occasionally sooner if a dog has done exceptionally well and is deemed ready to leave before the class is actually finished. All of our current cell dogs or graduates are designated as such in their individual descriptions in the “Our Adoptables” section of this website. If you’d like to get a jump-start on training your new pet, consider adopting a Rose’s Rescue cell dog!

Meet River

  River here, If I say so myself, I am a handsome,exceptionally sweet and fun-loving Australian Shepherd mix, who is ready to bring joy and companionship to your home! My mom has a chronic illness and needs to re-home me. At just 1.5 years old and 55 pounds, I have a playful spirit and a high energy level, that makes me the perfect adventure buddy. Whether you're going for a hike, swimming in a lake or river,  or just lounging on the couch, I will be right by your side. I have nothing but love in me. I am  an affectionate boy who thrives on companionship and connection. I am very attuned to energy, so I know when to support. I am house-trained, leash trained, do not destroy household items and get along beautifully with other dogs and children, making me an ideal addition to any family. My loving nature and friendly demeanor will melt your heart! I was hit by a car at a year old. I had a break on my left front leg. Xrays were done recently and it showed it did not heal properly. We will have a consult with an ortho Dr, to determine if a surgery could make it right. Otherwise, I may need an amputation. This cost will be on the rescue.Us dogs don't care about being handicapped. We adjust. This kind of surgery can be from $5-$7,000. Being I am young, the rescue may try to raise funds to save my leg. We will keep you updated.   River would thrive in an active household where he can receive plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, family adventurers as he loves riding in the car and camping. He’s looking for a loving family who can appreciate his sweet personality and provide him with the care and attention he deserves. If you're ready to open your heart and home to a furry friend who will fill your life with love and laughter, then River is the perfect match for you! Come meet him today, fall in love, and see just how wonderful life can be with River by your side!
